Re: Seed Swap

Hi Blair,
   Its a great thing that your doing with the seed list.

   As I didn't have a clue as to what I was doing at the beginning of
the 97  season I only have the seeds from my Martinek 137...whoopee
(Burpee Prizewinner Hybrid) to offer. Unknown parents. I also purchased
a 369 pound Atlantic Giant from the local Pumpkin Patch in October so I
would have some seeds to "Practice" with during the off season. I have
saved all  the seeds from these two pumpkins and will give them to
anybody who is interested. Next year I hope to have much more desirable
seeds to offer the group.
